How to Make Fruit Soup

Combine dried fruit, water, brown sugar (if using), and salt in a medium saucepan.
If using fresh ginger, add it to the saucepan now.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the fruit is plump and softened. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving. For a smoother soup, use an immersion blender to partially puree the mixture (optional).
Serve hot or cold. Enjoy!
